Pandemonium is a game series that has ‘platformer’ written all over it. You have your coin gathering cliche, jumping on bad guys’ heads to make them disappear in a puff of smoke, timed traps, boss fights with puzzle elements and – that old favorite – jumping from platform to another, time and again.

Sometimes, things aren't qu/te what they appear to be. Local newspaper headlines are a good example. In a craven attempt to boost circulation figures, provincial rags often run overexaggerated headlines screaming from the front page; yet the actual story, lurking beneath the lurid block capitals, is usually the same old boring nonsense. One of the Zone hill billies can clearly remember an Incident when a minor Oxfordshire tabloid's arresting lead Item - 'RIVER OF DEATH' - turned out to be an Incredibly uninteresting story about sticklebacks (yes, sticklebacks) dying In a mildly polluted stream.
What's this got to do with Pandemonium 2? Well, like the aforementioned news reports, it's not as interesting as It first appears. It looks like an incredibly exciting 3D platform game, with graphics that are good enough to halt passers-by in their tracks. it's one oi the growing legion of titles that requires an accelerator card, so expect to see It gleaming from a shop-window display near you soon.
Trouble Is, while the graphics may be three-dimensional, the gameplay Isn't Despite appearances, it's first and foremost a two-dimensional platformer - just like old-skool Sonic The Hedgehog, etc. There's no true freedom of movement, just forwards, backwards and jump. Still, once you're accustomed to the controls It's not a bad platform game by any means. Get stuck In and you'll discover It's a fairly compulsive play, it's just that It isn't a particularly interesting one.

It is the year of Cheese, and the advent of the Comet of Infinite Possibilities is foretold by the great prophet Nosewasinit. Naturally, Nikki and Fargus are interested in this comet; but they are not the only ones. The evil Goon Queen Zorrscha wants to use the comet for her own plans, so our heroes have to reach it first.The gameplay is similar to that of the first game; despite the 3D graphics, the gameplay mechanics are those of 2D platformers. The player can select Nikki or Fargus for each level.
Each of the two has different abilities. For example, Nikki can jump higher, while Fargus can use his puppet Sid for a variety of attacks. The characters can also acquire power-ups, such as fire and lightning ranged attacks for Nikki or various Sid enhancements for Fargus. There are also level-specific items and vehicles the heroes will encounter on their way.From Mobygames.com.
